Chapter 249: The Feeling of Home

This ancient Chinese tradition has favored sons over daughters, and boys are regarded as the successors of the family's inheritance of incense, and the death of the eldest son must have broken the man's heart.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you. I whispered.

"Oh, hehe, it's okay. It doesn't matter that this often happens in our village, and it is not easy to raise an adult with children in any family, hehe. Ma Tiezhu said kindly.

It is also a fact that many diseases in the ancient medical environment were not treated in time, and many people lost their lives in this way, often at least one child will die if a family has an average of 5 children.

"See, our village has arrived. Ma Tiezhu pointed to a village not far ahead and said happily to me.

The village is located between the lotus ponds, surrounded by a blue wave, a few towering trees stand in the village, you can see these big trees from afar, it is already dusk, a little smoke comes out from the roofs of many farmhouses, the village from time to time there are a few sounds of dogs barking, people who are busy with farm work from all directions walk leisurely towards the village, talking while walking. This kind of image made my brain pause for a moment.

I wish I could keep this picture in my mind forever, without a camera or phone, if I had, I would have preserved this quiet beauty forever.

That's life?????

"Tiezhu, who is this?" At this time, a middle-aged man's voice came into my eardrums, and I immediately came to my senses, and a bronzed-skinned middle-aged man with a hoe stopped beside us.

"Brother Tianming. This is a guest of our house, and we should come by heaven. Ma Tiezhu said happily to the man.

"Oh, it's amazing from the imperial city, it's amazing, it's amazing, Tiezhu, when did you have relatives in the imperial city, it's really amazing. The man said with great respect and politeness, his eyes showing a look of pure affection.

"Hello uncle. I politely shouted to the man.

"Good, good. Hehe. The people from this imperial city are different, hehe. The man politely left us.

The horse and I walked into the village.

Along the way, I met a lot of village names, and Ma Tiezhu was happy to introduce me to these village names one by one, and I was from the imperial city, and every village name was extremely happy that Ma Tiezhu had relatives in the imperial city like me. This pleasure is simple and rustic. There is not a trace of jealousy in it.

Ma Tiezhu's home is in the west of the village. There is another big locust tree in front of the door, this big locust tree is estimated to be hundreds of years old, and it may take five or six people to hug it. There was a little girl playing leisurely under the locust tree.

"Daddy, Daddy. "When the little girl saw us coming, she happily rushed up to Ma Tiezhu.

"Chunhua, where is your mother?" asked Ma Tiezhu while hugging his daughter.

"Mother is cooking in the house, Dad, what about the baked cakes you bought for me?" the little girl asked innocently.

"Oh, in Daddy's back, you go down, Daddy will fetch it for you. Ma Tiezhu put the daughter on the ground, and then put the back of the bar on the ground, and took out a baked cake and gave it to the little girl.

The little girl took a handful of the baked cakes and began to eat them.

"Well, it's delicious, Dad, next time you go to the market, bring me baked cakes." The little girl said as she ate.

"Well, you are obedient and obedient, and Dad will buy it for you every time. Ma Tiezhu touched his daughter's head kindly and said.

At this time, a tear quietly rolled down my eyes, this picture is so kind, and how familiar it is???

When I was a child, every time my father went on a business trip, I would say the same thing to him: "Dad, bring me something delicious." ”????

My father would listen to my arrangement every time he went on a business trip, and always brought back some special products from the business trip or what I liked to eat, which was a happy thing in my childhood, sometimes my father was not on business for a long time, and when I was young, I would ask, "Dad, why don't you go on a business trip?" ??? Dad knew that I was greedy, and always smiled and called me a little gluttonous cat???

I don't know what my parents are doing now??? Is it still dusk? Is his mother still busy cooking? Is his father making a cup of strong tea as usual, lying on the sofa, reading the newspaper and waiting for his mother to call him to eat??? Perhaps this picture of a peaceful life has been broken by my inexplicable crossing, forever???

Now the little girl in front of me is just like me back then, and every time my father brings back the best gift, she is the most looking forward to.

"Chunhua, this is Sister Xiao Qin, call Sister quickly. Ma Tiezhu then remembered me beside him, just now in the eyes of this father only his little daughter.

"Hello sister. Xiao Chunhua shouted to me with a pancake.

"Haruka is so cute. I said with a smile.

"Tiezhu, how many times have I told you not to buy anything for the girl, why don't you always listen?" At this time, a middle-aged woman in her forties came out of the house, this woman had an apron tied around her waist, and her hair was a little scattered, but her eyes revealed incomparable simplicity and kindness.

"Who is this?" the woman asked when she saw me.

"Oh, it, this is a noble man I met on the road, from the imperial city, who stayed at our house for one night tonight, called Xiao Qin. Ma Tiezhu said to the middle-aged woman.

This woman is Ma Tiezhu's wife.

"Hello girl, all right, come into the house, rest in the house. The middle-aged woman had forgotten what she had just punished her husband and enthusiastically pulled me into the house.

"Hello Auntie. I said politely to the woman.

"Auntie??? You call me Auntie?" the woman asked, not quite understanding.

???? Am I stupid?? Of course I don't understand this aunt in this era, I didn't come back to my senses just now, and I was used to calling it like this, but this aunt was confused.

"Oh, big girl, hello. "I'm going to change my name quickly.

"Okay, okay, Miss Xiao, sit down. Tiezhu, pour a glass of water for Miss Xiao, I'll go cook, and I'll be ready." The woman said enthusiastically.

"I know, me, kill the hen at home, stew, there are no good dishes tonight, Miss Xiao, don't dislike it. The horse said to the woman.

"This hen ???" There was a hint of hesitation in the woman's eyes.

"What's the matter, I said kill and kill. Go for it. Ma Tiezhu interrupted the woman's words and said.

"Uncle. Auntie, I'll just eat something and don't kill chickens. I hurriedly said, this ancient countryside. A chicken is already a lot of family wealth for these rural families. Many families raise chickens by laying eggs and go to the market to exchange for some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other things. On weekdays, chickens are reluctant to eat eggs, let alone kill chickens.

I met the highest level of treatment of this Ma Tiezhu, and I obviously felt very sorry for it.

"Miss Xiao. Sit down, a chicken is nothing, we have nothing to entertain in the countryside, I hope you don't dislike it, if you don't eat it, uncle, I'll be angry. Ma Tiezhu said to me very seriously, this expression is quite serious, I can't object to him anymore.

"Uncle, thank you. That's all I have to say.

"That's right, Chunhua, you obediently accompany my sister here, and I'll pour water for my sister. Ma Tiezhu said to the little girl.

"Got it, Daddy, I'm going to drink water too. The baked cake in Xiao Chunhua's hand is already half missing, and it is estimated that she feels dry after eating this baked cake, and she also yells for water.

"Daddy knows, you just sit there. After Ma Tiezhu finished speaking, he entered the house.

After a while, Ma Tiezhu walked out with two bowls of water, one bowl was placed in front of me, and the other bowl was given to his daughter, who held her in her arms and fed it a little bit.

That's when I heard the sound of chickens being killed in the kitchen.

"Daddy, the rooster is crowing. Xiao Chunhua stopped to drink water and listened to the kitchen.

"Hehe, good, I'll give you chicken soup later. Ma Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Oh, oh, there's chicken soup to drink, there's chicken soup to drink. Xiao Chunhua shouted happily.

Children are so happy, a little bit can be satisfied, a little bit can bring them great expectations, and we adults, a lot of gains and losses have been numb, or make our appetite incomparably huge, and the endless expansion of desire has become greedy????

After a while, it was completely dark.

"Tiezhu, the meal is ready, come in and serve it. "The voice of the lady came from the kitchen.

Ma Tiezhu then went into the kitchen and came out with a large pot of chicken, and the lady behind him carried two plates of green vegetables, and then the two of them entered the kitchen again and served three bowls of rice and a plate of kimchi.

"Miss Xiao, let's eat quickly, let you wait for a long time, you are not hungry. The eldest lady said to me warmly.

"No, no. I hurriedly said, then took the chopsticks from my aunt's hand and began to eat.

I took a green vegetable and put it in my mouth???

This taste??? So familiar????

I quickly took another one and put it in my mouth????

Wow?? It's so delicious, I haven't eaten this taste for a long time, this is obviously the taste of my mother's fried vegetables, I didn't expect me to be able to eat it, I haven't eaten my mother's fried vegetables for more than half a year, it's like decades have passed, and now this taste makes me want to instantly return to the 21st century, back to my parents, my father put down the newspaper in his hand and sat down at the table, while eating the meal, he said some archaeological discoveries in the tomb, in fact, my mother has always disliked these archaeology or antiques, because my father, my mother has been acting as a qualified listener, and from time to time I also like to watch TV and love archaeology and treasure appreciation programs, in order to have more topics to discuss with my father????

I didn't eat a bite of chicken, so I sandwiched several chopsticks and vegetables in succession, and it tasted great.

"Miss Xiao, eat some chicken. "The lady on the side put a chicken leg in my bowl.

"Oh, thank you, hehe. I smiled, and then took out another chicken leg in the basin and put it in Xiao Chunhua's small bowl, Xiao Chunhua immediately picked up the chicken leg and began to eat it.

"Take your time, take your time, don't choke. The eldest lady whispered to Chunhua.

Seeing this scene, the figure of my mother instantly appeared in my mind, when I was a child, I was similar to a boy, very naughty, every time I ate, I didn't care, my mother was very patient to feed me a mouthful, and kept coaxing me to swallow the rice, now the Ma Tiezhu and this aunt in front of me would be how good it would be if they were parents????

I also put the chicken leg in my mouth and nibbled on it.

"Wow, it's delicious, the food cooked by the eldest lady is so delicious. I said with a smile.

"How can it be so delicious, it's much worse than the food in Miss Xiao's Imperial City. The eldest lady said politely while helping Na Chunhua tear the meat on the chicken thighs.

"Really, I've never had such a good meal tonight. I said with all seriousness.

"Yes, then Miss Xiao will eat more. Ma Tiezhu on the side said.

Then I really ate a lot of vegetables and this chicken, hundreds of years ago in China??? Local chicken, local vegetables??? This is really green and natural, absolutely pollution-free, this chicken soup is fresh??? I can't describe it at all, I drank two bowls of chicken soup and my stomach was dying.

Cool???

After eating, the eldest lady was busy in the kitchen to clean up. (To be continued......)
